20 bucks worth of high-strength stainless U-Bolts, fender washers, and lock nuts, and voila! 4 tie down points so my guitar gear doesn't tip over:

Re: lets see your trick mods and custom touches!!

Here is a 71 long bed I am working on for a lady. It started life as a Cheyenne, but has been stripped of its mouldings and will be lowered when we decide how much to do it, and what rims/tires to go with. I installed Specialty power window regulators and Brothers one piece side windows along with a white face tach dash, new seat, carpet, etc.





Here is the unfinished truck with Sir Michaels roll pan (not recommended) and gate skin.....

Re: lets see your trick mods and custom touches!!

Built this 10 years ago. Wanted a smooth cowling, plus, wanted to do something different. Frenched my antanae. It was fun, but scary to do. It was my first mod ever. Had so much fun doing it,that i've been building a truck from scratch the last few years.

Your gauge cluster is perfect! How well do the Suburb seats fit? Would they fit with the gas tank in the cab or would it have to be removed?
Anyway, beautiful work on everything!

Looks great! How did you attach the mesh to your cowl?
